I thought he was a senior. He has eligibility? And leaving?!

well he's saying that he's applying for a waiver so as it stands I don't think he has eligibility

I don’ see an argument for a waiver other than the JC years not counting.

i'm genuinely wondering where ridley will end up after this awful season

this might sound dumb, but i thought that some of his struggles had to do with 'scheme'. I HATED that they field goal team huddled, then sprinted up to the line like they were trying to fool the opponent. Just get the line up there, make sure they are set and ready to cover the pressure, and let your kicker focus on the uprights.

These portal entries reminds me of basketball last year when several guys who had exhausted their eligibility (DeBruhl, Johnson) put their names in hoping that some waiver might be granted.

i wonder if this can be credited to our tendency to play overly fast... there were hundreds of moments where we had the lead and 100% should've been moving a little slower to keep the clock ticking but kept the tone like we were down 20. clock management basics felt a little off all season

even when we play fast on offense, we rarely rush up to the line and snap quick. It just never made sense to have the protection rush up there before we set up for the kick. Did it for both FG and PAT, where the play clock shouldn't be an issue. I think it was all strategic - a way to get the opponent off guard in case we run a fake.

We'd have to check the film, but did the holder and kicker also join the sugar huddle, or was it just the protection? If it included the kicker and holder, then I agree 100% on revisiting that. If not, then moot point if the holder and kicker were separate.

pretty sure they were all clustered around the kicker.

That's wild. Those freaks are usually taking their measuring steps and making sure all the stars are aligned and gauging the wind and geometry
